Hello! Would like some 2 cents, tempted to apply with the RP signup promo but at the same time don't wanna get a credit card that is not sustainable

1. Annual Income: 100k

2. Free Lifetime Annual Fee: Yes / Can be waived within reasonable conditions

3. Card required for: Day to day transactions but plus point for Air Miles, Travel, Lounge Access

4. Existing credit cards (if any): MBB VS, VSB and Amex Platinum, UOB One, HSBC Visa Platinum.

5. Interested in CC from: HSBC T1 or Visa Signature, Stand Chart Journey or Smart or Visa Platinum (Hard to choose 1 card)

6. Others: Please be specific. I need to fulfill 30k annual spending for VS so if can I would try to avoid annual spending requirements for AF waiver unless the benefits are better than my existing.
*
SC Jouney -> 60K annual spent.
SC smart /Visa -> no lounge access

I am tired of trying to play the mile game and with the constant perks' policies changes among different credit cards from different banks. I am thinking to look into a credit card that can provides lounges access, free of charge and able to accommodate my moderate spending. 

Sadly, instead of Krisflyer, the card I found are only eligible for Enrich Points.

I am thinking HSBC will be better because I can utilized the points on other things instead of Enrich.

Hope to hear some thoughts from the sifu here  notworthy.gif

my personal opinion

a) Heard, HSBC very bad in term of miles redemption. 15k -1k miles...too little
Currently using HLB Visa Infinite. Free for life and auto to Enrich. No need to think annual fees and use point to convert. Enrich point also can redeem lazada and other voucher

Hi,
need advice, on increasing my credit card limit. currently holding maybank 2 card. (previously tried increasing limit, but doesnt seem to get through)
should i pledge with FD, or get new card from other bank

Would like to apply for additional card with higher limit, maybe 50k, 70k or 100k.

just for occasional spending on lux goods (during special occasion)

please give me good suggestion
- doesnt really travel much, maybe once or max, twice a year. too busy with work, so not sure whatever these lounge access etc... worth the hidden/fee
- is the reward pts worth it? how much is the annual charge?

apply other cc (no local bank), their credit limit is higher

CIMB actually has more access to lounges worldwide compared to UOB ... if you can qualify for CIMB Petronas VI, you should apply as well since it's free for life and has 4x lounge access (I think) per year with no strings attached.

got spending criteria that need to fulfill

Wanna apply for the Bank Islam cc, looking through Ringgitplus and BI's own website, seems no promo available for NTB signup.

Just to check, if anyone come across any BI signup promos previously?

Thanks
